Fire damage restoration in Medford, homes performed by SERVPRO gets detailed attention to the many issues caused by a house fire. Some of the biggest trouble spots in a home include:
- Water damage from extinguishing efforts
- Soot on the interior and contents
- Structural damage that needs temporary repairs to inhibit further damage from happening
After contacting their insurance agent, the next phone call should be to SERVPRO to start the restoration and repair service. The trained and certified technicians work with the insurance company and ensure that actions taken during the cleanup are done within the scope of coverage, so there are no surprise expenses during the restoration service.
SERVPRO advises homeowners not to enter their property post-fire without the consent of the fire department. One of the biggest reasons is the potential for reigniting flames and structural damage that can cause injuries such as a wall or ceiling collapse. Also, foodstuffs should not be consumed if they were in the vicinity of the fire as soot particles can enter even sealed jars, and toxic fumes or heat can ruin food items, including those in the freezer or refrigerator.
As far as turning on lights in the home, check with the fire department before doing so; it may not be safe in some cases. SERVPRO does not need working electricity to handle the fire damage restoration services; the techs bring generators to power their equipment.
